Kamehameha! :chuckles:

Actually I had the Xenon rear valence and sides when I was first modding my car (that hondasport ad really made it look good) . But I mated it with the Andy's combat front bumper. What the hell was I thinking when I bought that combination. :rolleyes:

:rofl: that hondasport ad took the picture straight from SCC when they did the black civic coupe from canada with the JRSC blower and the prototype of the first Xenon kit for the EG. i still have that issue somewhere :oh:

Not just that, but Super Street and [the old] SCC was always featuring 5th gen coupes with the Xenon kit on it. I really liked the styling [back then] so I ordered it. I think that I got the sides and rear for 400. Eventually sold it to a friend.

I was waiting for a response like this. :p

There was this Japanese cartoon called Dragon Ball Z. In it, some of the characters shoot these REALLY big fireballs and at the same time they shout "Ka mee ha mee ha!!!" I spelled it phonetically to avoid confusion but it's pronounced differently from the Hawaiian king Kamehameha. I have no idea what it means if it's translated in the cartoon but you can get an idea of what I'm talking about from the pictures on the car. Regardless, I doubt there was any disrespect intended toward Hawaiians on this board.

KAUAI KANE 06-09-2003 04:50 AM

:cool: it's ok then sorry bout that i just get real pisseed when people start about the hawaiian history like that cause thats my ancestory (well part only but still)

randomtask77 06-09-2003 08:45 AM

I think in Japanese, Kame translates to turtle. That's why in the series, that house in the middle of the water says "Kame House".
There is also a character called Kame-sanin (or something like that) which I think translated to turtle god. I'm not postive about this, I was just told by a friend who happens to like DBZ.
